Coin "Endangered Wildlife - Antarctica or Arctic"

With the release of a new coin issue, Cook Island, a natural Insular State which has an intense political connection to New Zealand, points out the endangered environment in the Polar region and the possible global consequences. The Emperor Penguin which is an original inhabitant of the Antarctic and the Ice Bear with its cub who live on the opposite pole, represent the whole animal kingdom which is endangered by the human’s moral conduct.
